But the three of them didn't relax for long before they heard footsteps outside.

The two of them quickly pulled Shen Leyan up and sat her down again.

Aunt Cuihu led the palace maids and walked in in an orderly manner, carrying meals.

"Your Majesty, please enjoy."

After the palace servants put all the food on the table, they began to serve her.

Shen Leyan nodded somewhat unnaturally. She had not yet completely gotten used to her current identity, especially being served by a group of people, which made her very uncomfortable.

Shen Leyan coughed lightly and tried to calm herself down.

She looked at the exquisite dishes on the table, but didn't have much appetite.

At this time, Aunt Cuihu said softly, "Your Majesty, this Jade Pearl Soup was carefully prepared by the Imperial Kitchen. It is very nourishing."

Shen Leyan smiled and scooped a little into her mouth with a silver spoon, savoring it slowly.

Fortunately, after a while, Emperor Yong'an finally came back. She hurriedly put down the silver spoon in her hand and went to support Emperor Yong'an, who was drunk.

"I'm sorry to have kept the Empress waiting for so long. The Emperor was just stopped by the adults and drank a lot of wine, so he came back late."

Shen Leyan nodded, took the drunk Emperor Yong'an from Baoshun, and helped him to rest on the couch.

Baoshun has followed Emperor Yong'an for so many years, but this is the first time he has seen the emperor drink so much alcohol.

It can be seen how happy the emperor is today, and he is also happy for the emperor and the queen.

Finally, I got what I wanted...

At this moment, Emperor Yong'an's face was flushed, his eyes were slightly drunk, his eyelids were drooping, and he fell on the soft couch with the help of Shen Leyan, his body unstable.

Shen Leyan called out to Emperor Yong'an softly, but he only responded vaguely, his voice slightly hoarse from being drunk.

She turned around and told Baoshun to get some hangover soup.

Bao Shun took the order and left. Soon he came back with a palace maid carrying a hangover soup.

Shen Leyan took the hangover soup from the palace maid. Bao Shun helped to carefully lift Emperor Yong'an up, and Shen Leyan personally fed him the hangover soup spoonful by spoonful.

Emperor Yong'an seemed to be a little more awake. He opened his eyes slightly and saw Shen Leyan. A faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and he reached out to grab her wrist.

"Yan'er... I am really happy today..." Emperor Yong'an murmured.

Shen Leyan blushed and responded softly: "Okay, okay, I get it."

The palace maids began to doubt the conversation between the emperor and the empress.

I didn't expect that the Emperor was so deeply in love with the Empress. They now get along like an ordinary couple.

Emperor Yong'an, who had regained consciousness, waved his hand and asked everyone else to leave.

At this moment, the hall suddenly became empty and quiet. Shen Leyan leaned gently in his arms, feeling his heartbeat.

"Sorry Yan'er, I'm late." Emperor Yong'an stroked her hair and said with some guilt.

"Nothing, today is our big day, it's normal for Your Majesty to be tripped up by the ministers."

"But I just want to be with Yan'er!"

Emperor Yong'an wanted to shake his head when he thought of the scene just now. Those princes and ministers seemed determined to get him drunk.

If he hadn't been able to hold his liquor very well, he would have been drunk and passed out long ago.

Shen Leyan hugged his waist and chuckled, "I'm just waiting here for you to come back, aren't I?"

"That's great. Yan'er can finally stay with me forever..."

Emperor Yong'an noticed the table full of delicious dishes and the soup that was not much in Shen Leyan's bowl, and carried her back to the table.

"Is Yan'er starving today?"

"It's all my fault for not getting away in time. I wanted to come back earlier to have dinner with you."

Unexpectedly, he not only failed to come back in time to have dinner with her, but he even missed the opportunity to help her remove her makeup and change her clothes.

But after they finished bathing, he would have the chance to help her get dressed...

As Emperor Yong'an spoke, he picked up her favorite dishes and fed them to her.

After a while, Shen Leyan couldn't eat anymore.

Maybe because she had been hungry before, she didn't feel that hungry at the moment.

"Your Majesty, you must have had no time to eat since you drank so much tonight. You should eat something to fill your stomach."

But Emperor Yong'an felt that his stomach was full of wine, so how could he eat anything else?

However, not wanting to make Shen Leyan worry, he casually ate a few bites to reassure her.

After ordering the meal to be taken away, the palace maids carefully brought in the wedding wine.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please drink the wedding wine together."

Shen Leyan took the wine glass with a blushing face, linked her arms with Emperor Yong'an's, and drank the wedding wine together.

According to the normal process, after drinking the wedding wine, it is time to start the bridal chamber, but the two of them had just finished their meal and were not in the mood for that at the moment...

However, this was just Shen Leyan's unilateral idea. Emperor Yong'an had already thought about it...

After all, good nights are short...but he respects Shen Leyan's opinion more.

They still have plenty of time, and there will be countless days and nights in the future, so he is not in a hurry.

"If Yan'er isn't sleepy yet, how about we play two games of chess?"

Shen Leyan originally wanted to take him out for a walk to help digest his food.

However, she also felt that it would be troublesome to change clothes when going out for a walk, and many of the scenery could not be seen clearly at night.

Anyway, she will live here from now on, and the two of them will have plenty of time to stroll around.

So he quickly agreed to Emperor Yong'an's suggestion.

After the palace maid set up the chessboard, the two sat on the couch and started playing chess.

At first, both of them played carelessly, just to pass the time.

Emperor Yong'an also asked her from time to time about her feelings and mood today.

Shen Leyan also talked about the instructions and concern her father and mother gave her before she left home today.

Speaking of this, she suddenly began to miss them again...

I wonder if daddy and mommy are asleep now?

Do you miss her...

Emperor Yong'an felt heartbroken when he saw tears welling up in her eyes.

He quickly comforted her, "Don't cry, Yan'er. As long as you are happy in the palace, your father-in-law and mother-in-law will be relieved."

"Isn't there a folk custom of returning home after three days? Wouldn't it be okay for us to go back and see them together then?"

Shen Leyan held back her tears and shook her head, "I'm fine, don't bother me, or I'll break the rules."

Does she know where this custom exists in the imperial palace?

If Emperor Yong'an breaks the rules again and again for her, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction among the people in the harem and bring a lot of trouble to Emperor Yong'an.

Emperor Yong'an gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said softly, "Yan'er's affairs have never been troublesome."

"Besides, I'm the emperor, what's wrong with that?"

"It just so happens that I can take three days off for the wedding. I have nothing to do, so it wouldn't hurt to go."

Shen Leyan was touched, but still hesitant.

"Okay, don't think too much about it for now."

"Plans can't keep up with changes. If you want to go back one day, can we go back together?"

Only then was Shen Leyan persuaded to agree, deciding to make the best of it.

Let’s think about the rest later.
